Social media is teeming with authors screaming "BUY MY BOOK!" You see this for yourself, I'm sure. To me, authors promo-ing their wares relentlessly is like junk mail. It becomes extremely annoying and is instantly ignored and/or discarded. It might not translate into a lot of money for me, but I prefer to engage my friends, readers, and followers in simple dialog or sharing common interests. Once in a while I mention a book I've written and provide a link, hoping that someone will buy it. I refuse to plead or promise to give you $100 if you read it. To me, that's a mark of desperation.
Let me underscore that the best way to get a repeat reader is to write a book that's so good they want to come back for more -- and do!
Remain friendly, humble, and approachable. No one likes an uppity author who is full of herself.
Also, don't spend so much time doing promotion (or worrying about sales) that you neglect your writing. :-)(less)

Sometimes we get stuck because we're forcing our story or our characters to go in a way that is unnatural to them. I take a little break, maybe an hour, maybe a day or two. In that time, I push the problem out of my thoughts. When I am ready to fix whatever is stuck, I'll do a little meditation to prepare myself. Then I sit down and get back to work. Somehow, my subconscious has done the hard work for me, and the flow is unblocked.(less)

Mae B's Plan to Win Over Librarians

From Mae B's Journal:


I sneaked in the back door of the library the other day because I wanted to find out what goes on behind the scenes where my masterpieces will be stored.


I had no chance to observe, because one of the librarians was standing right there as I walked in. She gave me a dirty look, I tell you! Then she had the gall to tell me the public was not allowed in the back.  As if I was a p
